I'm using Harper as a middle name for my daughter (who is due on valentines day 2015) Kailynn Harper, I absolutely love the sound and feel of this name...I can care less whether it's common or not, that shouldn't be a deal breaker when coming up with a name...if you like it then use it!

Wow. I named my daughter Harper Elizabeth in 2008. I had never heard of another Harper except Harper Lee. And that's who I named her after. It's gotten so popular so fast. I thought she'd have an original name for life. Darn.

Love my Harper Grace, age 4. Everyone compliments us on her name. It is getting much more popular but I still love it. I knew I would have a Harper since I was in junior high school. She is named after my Mom since it was her maiden name.

Harper means harp player like a little cherub, my daughter, my angel, Harper Boadicea, little Bo-peep. I have always loved the name. It sux that it is jumping so much in popularity but it is also a compliment to our good taste in names :) good luck seeing Boadicea on the list or Huxley onthe bboy's side.

Harper was my maiden name, and my first name was always really common so people called me Harper my whole life. I grew to love it as a first name, and always imagined a daughter named Harper. Now I'm not so sure since it's becoming so popular!
